Bug Description

I just saw that there were some updates available, clicked the 'speech bubble'
thing in the top right to view the updates, and then asked for them to be
installed. During the installation process a terminal window was displayed
partially obscuring the window showing the list of updates. The terminal window
showed the progress of the installation. While the window showing the list of
updates was partially obscured, I took a screenshot of just that window (using
Alt-SysRq). See the attached image for how the screenshot was saved. The
bottom right hand corner of the window was obscured by the 'terminal' window,
but in the screenshot I see fragments on the updates window repeated there.
